I know this isn't going to get any sympathy from US OPs, but I'll
ask anyhow. DX stations *usually* ask for areas like EU, NA, SA etc.
And because there are so many JA DXers, often JA only. Where does
Canada and Mexico fit into this? 3C7Y just spent 10-15 minutes
Looking through some old paperwork, I found some DX cluster printouts that
showed a Solar Flux Index of 239 on Oct 26 of the last cycle peak. I found
another on October 23 showing 202, 0, 0. We have a long ways to go to get there
again, and they are predicting one of the best cycles ever
This afternoon 5L2MS was on 17 metres and started asking for USA
only, and in fact a EU station called and he sent IKxxx R U USA?
I was doubly afraid to call then, but decided the worst he could
do was the same to me. I called, and he sent VE1DX 5NN and I
replied R R VE1DX 5NN PSE NA
